1. A method for incorporating physical layer feedback into an adaptation layer function, comprising:

  • receiving flow packets for transmission to one or more remote devices;

    performing an adaptation layer function in response to physical layer feedback for the remote devices, wherein the adaptation layer function comprises a segmentation and reassembly function that adapts each higher layer packet to a protocol data unit size appropriate for a logical link mode, wherein the segmentation and reassembly function segments a flow packet based on transmission rate information; and

    monitoring subsequent physical layer feedback for the remote devices.
